Anyone else read the light novel series The Mimosa Confessions? I just finished the first volume and I'm curious to hear others' thoughts.

I found it compelling, but a really difficult read. The onslaught of transphobia levied at Ushio after she comes out felt like an attack on me. I'm one of the people who answered "maybe" in the recent survey, but a big part of that is plain fear of how I would be treated if I tried to live a life outside of my assigned gender. Seeing my imagined trials played out in black and white was really visceral...I actually had to put the book down halfway through and take a break for about a week before I felt ready to continue.It does feel a little weird experiencing Ushio's transition from a third-party perspective, but I guess that's a novelty compared to most of what I've read. I'm hoping that after the maelstrom of the first novel there's a bit more joy to be found in Ushio's life, because living as your authentic self should be about finding authentic happiness as well.
